Abstract

There are numerous well-known causes of acquired torticollis. However, an extensive review of the literature reveals only a rare, brief remark that associates torticollis with syringomyelia. We present three children found to have syringomyelia and spinal cord tumor, with torticollis as an early finding in each.
